    I need a distinction between VIDEO games (interactable videos with fail cases so it’s a game in the end but barely) and video GAMES (games you can see and not imagine, like basketball: no story, no progression, just rule based win/lose thing)

      I think you’re looking for “genres”, the problem isn’t the term “video games”.

      Sure, you have walking simulators and Bomberman. There you go.

      Bro couldn’t finish the prologue because their attention span is 10 minutes and somehow thinks the game has more cutscenes than content.
